Transition to Weekly Share Closings
FS Energy and Power Fund (the “Company”) currently accepts subscriptions on a continuous basis and issues common shares at semi-monthly closings. On or about September 11, 2013, the Company intends to transition from semi-monthly closings to weekly closings for the sale of common shares in its continuous public offering. Accordingly, following such date, the Company intends to accept subscriptions each Wednesday or, if such date is not a business day, the immediately following business day. Common shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan typically will be issued on the same date that the Company holds its last weekly closing within a month. In addition, in months in which the Company repurchases common shares pursuant to its share repurchase program, it expects to conduct repurchases on the same date that it hold its first weekly closing in such month for the sale of common shares in its public offering.
Distributions
Subject to the discretion of the Company’s board of trustees and applicable legal restrictions, the Company currently authorizes and declares ordinary cash distributions on either a semi-monthly or monthly basis and pays such distributions on a monthly basis. In connection with the Company’s intended transition from semi-monthly closings to weekly closings for the sale of shares in its continuous public offering, the Company intends to authorize and declare ordinary cash distributions on a weekly basis, while continuing to pay such distributions on a monthly basis.
